Ontelaunee Park’s Memorial Design: Honoring Local Military Veterans
The design of Ontelaunee Park’s memorial was divided into two phases. The first phase involved site grading and stormwater management. In the second phase, custom granite panels, pavers, and benches were constructed in Barre, Vermont. These granite panels offer the perfect canvas for honoring the 2,500 local military veterans, each of whom have their names engraved in tribute.
